at some point in time and space
no further than a shadow's depth,
yet also galaxies away,
no later than your next blink,
but hidden deep in past and future
things are being set in motion,
events unfurl as dice dance between
our careless cosmos and your phony gods

crash course in advanced weapon technology
solve one Manhattan Project in the idea of bread and games
add poppy seed extract
boil heavily
allow to incubate
sit back and watch
makes enough for all
in the civic centres of this world
a new weapon we behold
to paralyse their enemy
to ensure their victory
let their light be
let their kingdom come
let their peace prevail
let their freedom shine
spasms of light dancing on the walls
a kingdom of slaves, ignorant of all
this peace was build of fear and greed
devastation by this freedom is complete
like a lamb to the slaughter
choose your daily dose of poison
you may bathe yourself in misery,
or eat a pound of simulated torture
give everything you have
for anything you want
what you see is what you get
what else did you expect?
let their light be
let their kingdom come
let their peace prevail
let their freedom shine
So, let the show begin
daily massacre of a million minds
carpet bombed in countless waves
of virtual reality and total war
billions petrified in agony
shadows of what they might be
have a Hiroshima in your room
be a witness of your own doom

Crimson Tears

Here you stand again
The walls are closing in
Numbness flowing though your veins
Relief of horror is the pain
The lord of torment rules alone
Summons you before his throne
He demands your sacrifice
In obedience you pay the price
Scars unnumbered tell the tale
Battles in black mist and ruby spray
Bloody bargains with the knife
Desperate just to feel, feel alive
The cut, it´s done
And, for a while, peace it brings
Your blood runs down
In crimson streams
And it hits the ground
To dry like earth
The razorblade, a trusted friend
Seducing coolness, shiny steel
Brilliant edges and smooth feel
Will ease the hot and burning skin
The wounds not yet healed
The stains not yet gone
But the horrors
Soon awake and are once more afoot again
Once more crushed by agony
The blade alone can set you free
And again with blood you pay
For some sort of rest today
Scars unnumbered tell the tale
Of endless strife, black mist and ruby spray
Bloody bargains with the knife
Desperate just to feel, just to feel alive
The cut is done
And, for a while, peace it brings
Your blood runs down
In crimson streams
And hits the ground
To dry like earth
The wounds not yet healed
The stains not yet gone
But the horrors
Are afoot again
While laughter’s ringing in your ears
The blade will help fight your fears
With laughter ringing in your ears
The blade will help to fight your fears

Downpour

I wake up in this pain that runs from my head to my feet,
My brain, the dumb source that poisons what I feel
I lift my head to the pitch-black sky above,
drenched in the rain that ain't about to stop
The fairy-tale is well and truly over,
It ended in anguish
struggle to regain self control
Pain lasts longer,
days grows shorter,
and life flashes by,
'til I wither and die
Is it worth it feeling numb?
As they all turn their backs on me,
and leave me screaming for help.
Still drowning in seas of blank abhorrent perpetuity
I am the one who can't unmake what I've done
Unable to solve it the normal way, staying sane
with no one left, to stop the rain
Pull the plug, for the very last time,
once and for all, before the final curtain call
Never again!
No more glass will slit,
no more nightmares to resist,
erase my memory,
I've got to see it clear.
Let go! Let go of my soul!
I feel it fading away
to a place of eternal confinement,
I need to stop its descent.
The sky is crying tears,
I hope it washes all off me,
grabbing at straws, to leave the flood behind,
demons from my past,
pulling me into decay some more.
I need to find a window to jump right back,
Before I crack in a world so cold and black.

A Good Man

I am a good man, never committed no crime
for I am the tool of the eternal will
Consolation for my bitter task
lies in redemption of the saint´s eternal life
Your life is over now
For I brought the eternal sleep to thou
The path leads thee heavenwards
Or straight down the pits of hell
Face to face with the creator
Where in his scales thy fate lies now
The gates wide open
Now kneel down to pray
I wield the blade, the gun, the poison
I will cleanse thou with the holy flame
I roam to liberate your souls
from the torment of existence
But now the soothing voices
inside my head have died away
One by one
The sweet taste of thy blood has turned to bitterness
(spoken words from bible: deuteronomy 13:8-10)
מֵאֱלֹהֵ֣י הָֽעַמִּ֗ים אֲשֶׁר֙ סְבִיבֹ֣תֵיכֶ֔ם הַקְּרֹבִ֣ים אֵלֶ֔יךָ אֹ֖ו הָרְחֹקִ֣ים מִמֶּ֑ךָּ מִקְצֵ֥ה הָאָ֖רֶץ וְעַד־קְצֵ֥ה הָאָֽרֶץ
לֹא־תֹאבֶ֣ה לֹ֔ו וְלֹ֥א תִשְׁמַ֖ע אֵלָ֑יו וְלֹא־תָחֹ֤וס עֵֽינְךָ֙ עָלָ֔יו וְלֹֽא־תַחְמֹ֥ל וְלֹֽא־תְכַסֶּ֖ה עָלָֽיו
כִּ֤י הָרֹג֙ תַּֽהַרְגֶ֔נּוּ יָֽדְךָ֛ תִּֽהְיֶה־בֹּ֥ו בָרִֽאשֹׁונָ֖ה לַהֲמִיתֹ֑ו וְיַ֥ד כָּל־הָעָ֖ם בָּאַחֲרֹנָֽה
I am a good man, never committed no crime

Consolation for my bitter task

An Army 's coming
Yet unheard of
Countless legions
Built in the shade of disbelief
The Agnostic Army
Strikes their wardrums
Sounding horns
Of knowledge and discovery
Hear them marching
they ‘re getting closer
lifting the mists of deity
They’ll burn your crosses
destroy your altars
and raze your temples
they break your pentagrams
Pray to Odin,
Pray to Satan,
Pray to Jesus,
Pray in vain
Worship demons, worship angels
worship buddhas, serve in vain
trust your karma, trust your chakras
Believe in ghosts, believe in vain
be in vain
All you preachers
Monks and mullahs
Priests and shamans
Ravs and Gurus
Esoteric charlatans
Expect no mercy
Expect no mildness
They won't spare you
Their fury 's blazing
Their weapons deadly
They have learned now
You enslaved them for many centuries
We burnt your crosses
destroyed your altars
We razed your temples
We will hunt You
and You will be slaughtered
and get the proof
That there is no afterlife
And the last death rattle
now has died down,
The last shaveling disposed of and defiled
The smoke has thinned,
dust and ashes settle
on the debris of ancient lies
For once beheld by seeing eyes
And minds free from thraldom
A new sun rises
as the godless
inherit the earth
Prayed to Jesus, prayed to Satan
Prayed to Odin, prayed in vain
Worshipped demons, worshipped angels
Believed in ghosts, believed in vain

On The Wing
05:17

Afloat on night-blue skies
I spread my wings
Clad in flawless black
Shone upon by countless stars
Landscapes underneath
Are passing me by
Forests, meadows, deserts, mountains,
And the sea
Cities and hamlets
Come and go
Battlefields, graveyards
Come and grow
Your days and decades
Flicker by
Marching aeons pass
Beyond the gates of time
I am watching you
As I was, as I will be
From high above I
Gaze upon your misery
All prudent plans, the great idea
The noble cause of better times
Wisdom, knowledge, understanding
Blown to bits by hate and fear
Your power so small
Your ambition so weak
No persistence at all
Your commitment is fake
I feast on your corpses
I am devouring your dreams
I rest in the palace
That you’ve raised with your fear

Human Debris Hamburg, Germany
These days most melodic death metal bands bore the metal movement with stereotyped lyrics and uniform songs and sounds, slavishly catering to the whims of fashion or making futile attempts at resurrecting bygone splendour. Among few others, HUMAN DEBRIS stayed true to the both innovative and traditional sound they keep developing since the dawn of the millennium. ... more
